When the other team was in the field and took a catch the other team's scorer tried to use his smart phone camera to zoom in to the group of celebrating boys to work out which fielder took the catch... he struggled... But I have scored at that ground (our home ground) before, so I was prepared. After the other scorer gave up on the smart phones' EVF in exaspiration! I handed him my 8x42 hunting binoculars with which he (and I in our fielding innings) could instantly find the relevant player and work out who did what. You can always identify the fielder who caught the catch from all the high fives!

The natural superiority of optical over electronic view

Don't you think this was a question of wide angle lens used in Smartphones  versus (8x about 400mm on FF) telephoto lens?

How can all cameramen on Golf events, skiing races,,, get their job done on EVF, this thread claims this to be unpossible
